Arbitrage

Jimmy's not the moral center

He holds out, but in the end takes the dirty money from Miller. There is no moral center - that's the point. The cop, the lawyers and accountants, the businessmen, the wife and daughter, the judge, the DA, the girlfriend - all are corrupted by money to one degree or another. Good film, interesting performances by all.

why all the hype???

Ok the best part is the car crash - very realistic and powerful. Other than that I felt like I was watching a TV show, and that the story was trite. It's so easy to figure the plot. The acting is not very good either. Wait for this to come out on cable & save your money.

it is like cranberries on easter day

The movie is slow i felt like i was swimming in Jello the whole time i was watching it. The performances are competent but nothing special. The movie is a good example of how quickly everything can fall apart on you and I guess the point of the movie was to point out the basic fraudulent nature of human relations and that everybody is a dirty greedy cheating pig. But it was still watchable if slow and long.

The Titatic of American Businesses of the New Millennium

The fall of Rome was by all accounts forseeable and predictable for absolute power corrupts absolutely, so shall be the undoing of the United States of America, due to its own greed, blind ambition, and demand for World demonation at all cost, ie, the Republican Power's past 30 year Master Plan of Billionaires' Elite "New World Order"!-Born to do battle, drafted at birth.a.k.a.Warrior Breed!-Michael E.

You will Loathe Richard Gere!

Swindler, liar, cheater, morally-bereft, philanthropist, family man - all of these characteristics are rolled neatly into one tycoon. I watched in suspended animation, waiting for the “Madoff moment” as Richard Gere really became his loathsome character. he film Arbitrage follows hedge fund king Robert Miller (Richard Gere) from Wall Street to Harlem as his life begins to crumble from self-inflicted wounds, in a crime thriller that is partially ripped from the headlines.
